Silfverberg missed the final three games before the All-Star break, but he was back on a line with Ryan Kesler and Andrew Cogliano this morning, which suggests he’ll be back in versus the Avalanche on Tuesday. Silfverberg is on-pace for a career-year having scored 13 goals with 16 assists (29 points) in 48 games so far this season.
Ducks' head coach Randy Carlyle never reveals his starting netminder and with John Gibson ailing and the Ducks not holding a morning skate, it's impossible to get a read on who will go tonight. He called Gibson a game-time decision, so it looks like we will have to wait until warmups to find out who starts for the Ducks.
Silfverberg will miss his third consecutive game with an upper-body injury that he suffered last Thursday. Tonight is the Ducks’ final game before the All-Star break, so sitting out tonight affords Silfverberg an additional five days of rest.
Dumoulin has been sidelined by a broken jaw since December 27th, but is expected to play tonight vs. the Blues. Look for Dumoulin, who has seven assists in 35 games, to skate with Chad Ruhwedel on the third pairing.
Gibson left Saturday’s game with 5:38 left in the first period after making what appeared to be a routine save. Despite leaving the game the night before, Gibson joined his teammates for practice on Sunday and appears to be fine. Monitor Gibson’s status during Monday’s morning skate, but it looks like he’ll be available to start in Winnipeg.
